Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

The Fil-C Manifesto: Garbage In, Memory Safety Out
https://github.com/microsoft/checkedc
Also, one can combine subsets of C with FOSS, static analyzers that can handle those subsets. Then, compose only in ways that the tools can handle. Then, combinatorial and fuzz testing of the interface composition.
I know you’re doing the project for fun while exploring specific ways to achieve your goals. So, these are just some links and concepts that might help on your journey. Lots of folks don’t know about prior work in this area. So, I keep passing it on.

Azure CTO: “It's time to halt starting any new projects in C/C++ ”
Yes. Microsoft Research is working on "Checked C": https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/research/project/checked-c/
As a test, someone ported FreeBSD's networking stack to Checked C. It was easy and there was no overhead to performance and binary size.

I want to learn csharp man
Haha. I think they did ultimately agree. Thus a later research project is: Checked-C

elfshaker: a low-footprint, high-performance version control system fine-tuned for binaries
https://github.com/elfshaker/manyclangs is absolutely wild! 2000 builds of llvm accessible in a second is pretty incredible. I can image this would be great for bisecting an issue.

Elfshaker: GiB – 100 MiB, with 1s access time
Author here. elfshaker itself does not have a dependency on any architecture to our knowledge. We support the architectures we have immediate use of.
manyclangs provides binary pack files for aarch64 because that's what we have immediate use of. If elfshaker and manyclangs proves useful to people, I would love to see resource invested to make it more widely useful.
You can still run the manyclangs binaries on other architectures using qemu [0], with some performance cost, which may be tolerable depending on your use case.
